    I’ve always loved the Crosleys. They’re just too cute!! Lots of body styles to choose from. Sedan, Wagon, Convertible, Pickup and even the Hotshot sporstscar! Found a wagon in a barn a few years ago, but he wouldn’t sell. I’m sure it’s still there

    My old man had a wagon, he never said much about it other than he had one. His brother had a HotShot in the fiftys.

    The Crossly is kinda like the Metropolitan to me. I want one, but I can't quite figure out why..
